Increasing this to £14 in the middle of a pandemic shows the aloofness and disconnect between the Premier League and the communities its clubs are supposed to represent, and how out of touch they are with the real lives of ordinary working class people. For you Mick it is a matter of choice but for many watching their team is the only bit of escapism they have, hiking the price by 50% come on mate that’s just appalling. I’m no lefty but when things like this happen Capitalist greed has a lot to be ashamed of.
Nobody forces anyone to pay to watch, we live in a free society.

Highlights packages are full of all the best action and are free.

There’s nothing to stop anyone avoiding the result then watching the highlights.

I refuse to pay the £14.95 and I’ve told my lad that I won’t do it.
